only)
Purpose: Use this application to multiply the weight value by a user-defined factor. Division is
also possible if a factor of less than one is selected. The selected factor is saved to
protected memory.
Example: You want to calculate the weight per unit of a sheet of paper (DINA4).
To do so, proceed as follows:
– The weight per unit (e.g., 80g/m
2
) can be determined by dividing the weight by
the surface.
– The surface of a sheet of DINA4 paper is:
0.210 + 0.297 = 0.06237 m
2
.
– Division by 0.06237 is equal to multiplication by reciprocal value 1/0.06237,
i.e., 16.03335.
– Set the factor to 16.03335 in the application.
